Non Technical Summary
The rise in antibiotic resistance is an emerging global problem affecting human, animal, and environmental health. This increase may be due, in part, to the "industrialization of livestock production and the widespread use of non-therapeutic antimicrobial growth promotants" leading to decreased effectiveness of current antibiotics against human and animal diseases. Understanding the ecology of antibiotic resistance gene pools within livestock production systems and its effect on microbial ecology within host species is critical to better understand the emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance from a One Health perspective. Therefore, a critical gap exists in understanding the ecology, emergence, and transmission of antibiotic resistance in the pork industry, primarily due to the lack of investigations focusing on "plasmids or other integrative and cognitive elements", the hotspots for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes that lead to the emergence of AMR among microbial populations. This project, investigates the effects of antibiotic use on the ecology of the microbial community, AMR gene prevalence, enrichment, and transmission by evaluating the mobile genetic elements and the microbiome in the swine production system. Additionally, this study will develop new tools to identify host-plasmid associations and host range of plasmids to predict emerging AMR bacteria. Additionally, this study will evaluate an essential oil identified by this team for nursery pigs and develop science-based intervention strategies to reduce antibiotic use and mitigate emergence of AMR and effect change in management through outreach. This work is expected to translate to the development of management and nutritional strategies that reduce antimicrobial use and establish an outreach network that will improve the capacity nationwide to assess producer and consumer AMR-related food safety needs, and to develop, deliver and evaluate outreach programs that will help producers and consumers to assess and adopt practices that mitigate potential risks from food-borne AMR.

Goals / Objectives
long-term goal of this project is to determine the ecology and transmission of AMR gene reservoirs in pigs, identify critical control points for AMR throughout the pork production system, and motivate adoption of science-based interventions among industry partners to mitigate emergence of antimicrobial drug resistance in pork production. Research Objective 1: Determine the effects of antimicrobial use on the ecology of microbial community and microbial resistance gene reservoirs in the porcine gut and in wastewater at different production stages using longitudinal sampling.Research Objective 2: Develop neural network models to predict the bacterial host range of raw plasmid metagenomic sequences in complex bacterial communities for rapid risk assessment of emerging multi drug resistant strains using Nanopore sequencing.Research Objective 3: Develop a novel science-based management and nutritional strategy to reduce metaphylactic antibiotic use by utilizing a novel essential oil as an alternative to conventional antibiotics, evaluating the changes in the microbiome due to essential oil feeding and evaluating its applicability as a nutritional strategy to reduce the use of antibiotics.Outreach Objective: Improve knowledge of AMR-related risks and inspire the adoption of practices among food producers and consumers to combat AMR-related health and food safety risks across the food chain using the established, trusted, interdisciplinary iAMResponsibleTM Project platform to disseminate research-based information and best-practice recommendations.
Project Methods
Research Objective 1- Determine the effects of antimicrobial use on the ecology of microbial community and microbial resistance gene reservoirs in the porcine gut and wastewater (to evaluate downstream effects) at different production stages using longitudinal sampling. Specifically, we will evaluate the changes in the microbial community composition and microbial resistance gene reservoirs in the gastrointestinal tract of antimicrobial treated (55 mg/Kg carbadox and 250 mg/Kg copper sulfate in (AB1) and chlortetracycline/tiamulin hydrogen formate (AB2) and untreated animals (CONTROL) at different stages of the production cycle (day 28, 56, 91, and 126 covering weaning, nursery, growing and finishing phase of the production cycle) and in wastewater by sequencing the virome, plasmidome, microbial community and associated microbial resistance genes. The study will be carried out at the pork production facility at U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (USMARC) using 12 pens with 8 head per pen for each rep resulting in a total of 192 pigs with 64 pigs per treatment.Research Objective 2 - Develop neural network models to predict the bacterial host range of raw plasmid metagenomic sequences in complex bacterial communities for rapid risk assessment of emerging multi-drug resistant strains using Nanopore sequencing.We will train a language model with the fastai deep learning library using dereplicated plasmid genomes (RefSeq) split into 5,000 base pair segments with a 100 base pair overlap. A subword tokenization algorithm will be used to tokenize the genomic segments. The validation set for the language model will be genomic segments from 10% of the dereplicated genomes, rather than 10% of all genomic segments, to avoid data leakage between the training and validation datasets. We will train a four-layer quasi-recurrent neural network (QRNN) based on the concepts of masked language modeling (15% of tokens masked). Transfer learning involves further training (i.e., fine-tuning) a model to be more specific to a downstream task, which improves model performance. Nanopore sequences have unique error-profiles which can be simulated with NanoSim. We will fine-tune the pretrained plasmid language model using simulated Nanopore metagenomic sequences generated from dereplicated plasmid reference genomes. The training approach will be identical to pretraining, yielding a plasmid language model fine-tuned to the characteristics of Nanopore sequencing data. The fine-tuned plasmid language model will be used to develop a classifier to assign Nanopore metagenomic sequences to previously described and novel PTUs derived from the plasmid enriched metagenomic data in Objective 1 or an 'Other' class (bacteria, viruses, etc.). Nanopore plasmid metagenomic sequences for training the classifier will be simulated with NanoSim from a dereplicated set of RefSeq genomes (bacterial, viral, and plasmids). The classifier will be evaluated based on the accuracy of the test data, the accuracy on simulated and real metagenomic datasets, and the accuracy of newly sequenced plasmids not included in the training data. The plasmid enriched metagenomes from Objective 1 will be used to evaluate the classifier by comparing the assigned bacterial taxa obtained from methylation assisted binning and the plasmid language model classifier. The classifier accuracy will be compared to baseline tools, minimap2, a metagenomic mapping tool for long-reads, and Kraken. The developed model will be applied to the plasmid enriched metagenomic data generated in Objective 1 to better understand the host-range of plasmid-borne AMR genes throughout different production stages. Nanopore metagenomic reads will be fed into the model and sequences classified to PTUs and will be screened for AMR genes with DeepARG. Using the PTU network, we can assess the if the potential mobility of plasmid-borne AMR genes into foodborne pathogens is higher at different stages of production. For instance, the model will allow us to assess the potential host-range of plasmids with AMR genes early in production that may transfer to Escherichia coli and verify if those transfer events occurred via isolate screening included in Objective 1.Research Objective 3 - Develop a novel science-based management and nutritional strategy to reduce metaphylactic antibiotic use by utilizing a novel essential oil as an alternative to conventional antibiotics, evaluating the changes in the microbiome due to utilizing the essential oil as a feed additive and evaluating its applicability as a nutritional strategy to reduce the use of antibiotics. Currently, antibiotics are widely used to reduce pathogen colonization associated with weaning stress and this objective will help develop dietary intervention strategies using alternatives to antibiotics to reduce antibiotics in the swine industry.Utilizing the pork production facility at USMARC, the feeding experiments will be performed over the whole production cycle from farrowing to finish. Two replicates of 16 sows per farrowing group will be utilized that will contain n=4 litters/replicate. Litters will be standardized to a difference of 1 pig or less (10 or 11, 11 or 12, etc.), depending on number of pigs per sow, and cross-fostering will be performed in the first week of life. Pigs from the 32 litters (8 total litters per treatment) will be fed one of 4 treatments (1) Control, 2) Control + essential oil (EO, 2.5% inclusion rate), 3) Control + carbadox/copper sulfate (AB1, 55 mg/kg and 250mg/kg diet, respectively), or 4) Control + chlortetracycline/tiamulin hydrogen formate (AB2, 55 mg/kg and 1.65 g/kg, respectively) as creep feed during lactation starting at 7 d prior to weaning and throughout the nursery phase (28d; 35 d total). All pigs will be fed common diets in the growing and finishing phases of production. The pigs will have free access to each diet and diets will be formulated to meet or exceed NRC nutrient recommendations (1). At weaning, treatments will be moved into the nursery together and be group-housed and blocked by litter. Body weight will be measured gravimetrically starting on days 0, 10, 28, 56, 91 and 126 of life. Weekly pen feed disappearance will be measured in the nursery (d28 to 56). Individual weights and feed intakes will be measured in the USMARC Feed efficiency Barn (described in Obj. 1). At days 0, 28, 56, 91 and 126 a fecal grab sample will be collected from each animal. Subsamples of fecal grabs will be pooled by pen and be snap frozen and stored at -80°C for evaluating microbial community compositional changes.Outreach Activity #1: Deliver relevant outcomes generated by achievement of the project's research objectives through the iAMResponsibleTM Project and the eXtension Livestock and Poultry Environmental Learning Community (LPELC).Outreach Activity #2: Deliver project outcomes through the existing iAMResponsibleTM Project-led university graduate-level course, AMR from a One Health Perspective.

Outputs
Target Audience:Target audiance include extension educators, scientists, researches, livestock producers, consumers and policymakers. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?During the reporting period 1 PhD student (Nafisa Lubna) and 2 undergraduate students (Jillian Bailey and Alexis Sampson) developed or refined STEM communication skills by contributing to the development and distribution of educational materials for the iAMResponsible social networks and educational library. The continued expansion of media development by the iAMResponsible team has required team members Bethany Zelt and Mara Zelt to develop new expertise in video production, audio production, and graphic design, utilizing programs such as Canva, and the Adobe Creative Suite, and database management capacity in Airtable. Additionally,1 PhD student was recruited and has been learning techniques in microbial ecology and molecular biology. This student is also engaged in multidisciplinary research and is learning bioinformatic analysis methods and has been mentoring 2 undergraduate studnets. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?Primary dissemination for the iAMResponsible team has been via social media, and other online publications, in course materials, and at professional, educational, and community events.Additionally, research findings have been disseminated through poster and oral presentations at conferences and peer reviewed publications. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?During the next reporting period, the iAMResponsible team will conduct a survey of backyard and small-scale farmers who raise animals to understand their current biosecurity practices and intervention needs for preventing farm-to-home transfer of antimicrobial resistance. On the reseach side, we plan to process the samples collected from the animal study and to investigate the microbiome changes in response to AMR and also sequence plasmidomes and viromes to understand the effect of antimicrobials on the ecology and emergence of AMR.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? As part of Objective 1, we have completed the animal trials at USMARC. Both reps of the trila has been completed and we are currently analyzing the samples for microbiome, plasmidome and virome analysis. Objective 2 has not yet started as it will utilize sequence dat from objective 1. We are also developing single cell encapsulation protocols and metodology to sequence single cell genomes to link plasmids to host to identify which host bacterial species are carrying AMR genes. As for objective 3, we have completed the essential oil feeding study and are currently analyzing the microbiome and performance information. As for outreach objectives, the core to the iAMResponsible team's mission is translating and transferring technical, scientific information into accessible and enjoyable educational materials for a wide variety of agricultural and food-safety related audiences. During the past year the team significantly expanded their video production capabilities to include short videos for social media distribution. The short video style (vertical orientation, 0:30 to 1:30 min in length) was the most requested information delivery vehicle by producer participants in educational programs conducted during the previous reporting period. To meet this demand the team joined TikTok and increased their emphasis on video production for AMR information. As a result, iAMResponsible short video videos have been watched for just under 100 hours (94.3) across all platforms during the past reporting period.

Additionally, we plan to complete animal studies and begin sequencing the microbiome, plasmidome and virome to understand the effect of antimicrobials in the ecology and emergence of AMR.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? As for research objectives; Under Objective 1, the animal trials are underway. We hope to have the animal trials completed by summer of 2025. As for objective 2, we have not started objective 2 as we are awaiting data from objective 1 to start objective 2. For objective 3, we have planned the essential oil feeding trial. The trial will start end of October 2024 and will be completed by spring of 2025. As for outreach objectives, core to the iAMResponsible team's mission is a train-the-trainer approach to equipping current and future one-health professionals to educate and empower their communities to address the AMR-One-Health challenge. This year, the team partnered with student groups based in Monrovia, Liberia and Lincoln, NE (USA) to plan, promote, and conduct three community outreach events to introduce AMR health risks and potential interventions to youth audiences (ages 4 to 18). The iAMResponsible Team's role in these events was to develop educational materials and provide guidance and training to the student-leaders both about AMR and in delivering STEM youth programming. More than 330 community members participated in one or more of these student-led events. Participants indicated a high level of new understanding of the AMR problem and intention to take individual action to combat the crisis. 92% of participants said they improve their awareness of AMR to a great or very great extent, and 84% said they planned to engage in research, policy development, or advocacy to address AMR in future. Student-leaders were also positively impacted by the programs as teaching further improve their own understanding of AMR and deepened their commitment on the issue. 11% of student-leaders said they learned something new about AMR and 35% intended to expand their awareness efforts in their personal networks.
